Cool & Not Cool at School

Not Cool- Having your boss catch you go through the Emergency Exit door to snag a pop from the vending machine.- A bunch of 3rd graders flicking pieces of corn dogs at one another. Sick. - Whining over where you stand in line. Get. Over. It.Cool- First grade students spontaneously doing the dougie out of excitement in response to the statement, "Now we are going to play Around the World with sight words." Who woulda thunk?- A kindergartner beelining for you in the hall just to tell you that he is going to buy you pizza and chocolate milk for your birthday... even though your birthday is 8 months away. - A first grader asking me to come to his little league baseball games over the summer. And then following it up with, "And, maybe, you could make me signs cheering me on and maybe you could buy me nachos after the game." Maybe, Martez. Maybe.

i'm kathleen quinn

I am a recent University of Wisconsin-Madison alum. I now teach in Minneapolis. I'm from a small suburb just outside of Chicago. The rundown : two parents, two older brothers, one dog. I'm the seamstress for the band; the only problem is that I have yet to learn how to sew. I appreciate a good ole preamble. In general, I can relate to blabber; sometimes it's what makes the most sense. In my spare time I like to write and take photos cuz it's fun to do bad things. What, you haven't seen the Latarian Milton video on youtube? Oh my.
